I open my eyes. I see Hazel looking at me from above. But the position doesn't add up.

I should be on the floor. And yet, I feel something warm and soft under my head.

My pillow shouldn't be warm and that soft. It is kinda springy and it feels really good. And the position she is in implies something.

I am currently on her lap.

"Good morning, master." She smiles at me and greets me. She is as bright as always.

"Umm….good morning. Hazel, why am I sleeping on your lap?"

"Master looked like you were in pain. So to comfort you, I put your head on my lap."

Was I in pain? I thought I was sleeping normally.

"You were even crying in sleep and mumbling something. I couldn't catch what you were mumbling. But your face looked really sad and lonely."

Hazel is brushing my hair with her hand and showing a worried look. It looks like I worried her.

I put my hand on her head and pat her.

"Hyyaaa…." She made a really weird sound.

"What's the matter?"

"No. You just so suddenly touched my ears. My h

    This morning is already too exhausting. With Hazel acting like that, I am completely worn out.Fay somehow saved me. I thank her. Because of her, some important things were saved."No need to thank me. I just did what was right. But it is strange!!" (Fay)"What is?""Her acting like that. I do know that dog kins do go into heat at a specific time. But it doesn't feel like that. She went into heat unnaturally." (Fay)"I see... Anyway, I have to be careful. It was great that Eden wasn't awake. If she saw that then she might try something like this too.""No. The beastkins only go into heat once they are completely developed. So normally she won't be able to go into heat. She is still a child." (Fay)Thank goodness. Eden won't catch any weird habits like that.But why did Hazel go into heat?(She has the spirit conductor skill. It enables her to become a conductor of . And you are using that to enhance your body all the time. So your energy went through her body and the process was kinda

    But before leaving, I have to do some things. I look at Hazel. She is normal again. Fay is acting weird but can't blame her.She just heard that someone she knows plotted against her. But she said the prince faction."Fay, what is the prince faction?"Fay twitches. I hit the mark then. The thing she was hiding was probably this. But she nods her head and gives me a wry smile. I thought she wasn't going to answer. "I said that I was born from the king's 14th concubine. But in actuality, I am the third in line to the throne." (Fay)She is third in line. That must be weird."How are you in line? How is succession order decided anyway?" "It depends on our popularity. The populace decides the successor. I am currently third most popular among all of the potential successors." (Fay)So she has the public support. But that's also why her every action feels so calculated. She is used to it. Hiding her real self behind a mask of popularity. An idol of sorts."Who is the first then?" "My el

    I ran away. Why? I don't know. I just got a feeling while talking to them. Eden had just woken up. So I was planning on going to my home.It would have been better to visit their workplaces where they died. But it would be too much of a hassle. Then I got this unsettling feeling.My mind was feeling anxiety. What was that feeling?(A fleet is coming. Fast!!"System is saying that in a hurry. A fleet??(Yes. The same as the first one. That duke Martin or something is on the move again. Maybe, they are coming to silence the princess.)"I see. Then maybe I should let loose a bit. My training is still ongoing after all. By the way, can I go to space?"(You can. The aegis can hold the barrier around you even in space. With you can enhance the effects. And I will throw in this as a bonus. Gather in your hands and make a ball. Throw that ball. You can use the gun for this if you can't control it. This should be as powerful as a nuclear deterrent.)"I am amazed at that and thankful too.

    After all that build up you thought I would be fighting a bloody war, right? Sorry, it was a false alarm.By false alarm, I don't mean they aren't coming. It's just that, they just left their own planet. It would still take a full 3 days before they reach.When I was crossing the stratosphere, System suddenly told me that. It made me so mad that I flew straight to the moon. It was cold and magnificent.I don't have enough words to describe the view. Watching the earth from moon is really romantic in a sense. I admired earth for a while. Took a good look at Jupiter. A fat gas ball.I can see the eye which is spinning crazily. I think my eyesight became better. I can normally see a lot further than before. When I enhance my eyes, it becomes even better.For easier reference, without enhancements, I can see something more than 10 kilometres away. And that's in 144p view. Really blurry.I can see the horizon normally. Which means, I can see at least 5 kilometres clearly. But with enhancem

    I planned on going alone to experiment with the blackhole. But Hazel and Fay have voluntarily agreed to accompany me. It's not that I asked them to. They kinda put pressure on me and are with me.When both of them are here, how can I leave Eden behind? She is here as well. This experiment involves blackhole. So I chose an open field. Without much obstacles.A blackhole will suck you the moment you get close to it. So, we have to be careful. "Listen, this time it's going to be a bit dangerous. I will erect a few barriers around you. Stay inside. Don't come out at all." I am warning all of them. Most of the times it's just Eden who complains about that. But this time is special. All of them are complaining.They don't know what the experiment is about. Let's ask Hazel."Hazel, do you know what a blackhole is?""Isn't it that black thing that sucks light in?" (Hazel)"Don't answer a question with another one. But yes, it is something that sucks light in without letting it escape." "Wh

    Fay POVI am a princess. Just in name though. My father is a king. The name of the country doesn't matter. At least for now. Because, I am not in my country.I am not on my home star. I am currently on another star. The name of the star is unknown to me. We haven't had any records of this star as well. We didn't even know there was a star which was habitable here. One day, duke Martin came to the castle.I was there as well. Although I seldom visit the castle, I was there for a certain reason. Duke Martin greeted me when he saw me but I clearly saw it. The ridiculing smile behind his polite demeanor.He is a man who can be said charming. A tall and handsome man. Good at fencing and is a good warrior. A truly accomplished man and the next in line to his house. He will succeed his house because the other sons are nothing compared to him. That's the kind of man he is. To the public that is. However, I know who he really is.A coward!! He isn't a warrior. He hired a few mercenaries to f

    Fay POVI call out to the stalker. I knew it was intelligent. But when it showed itself, I was taken aback a bit. It looks just like a human. A man came from behind the tree. Upon seeing him I became even more puzzled. I noticed that this star does not have a sliver of magic. Nothing close to it. It's like this star is already dead. No living spirit is here.But this man….how to say, is kinda giving off a pressure. This pressure is completely unknown to me but I found him because of this pressure.It is emanating from his body. He doesn't notice it so it maybe it's unconscious. I ask his name. But he asked for mine."Ahh. That's true. Sorry for the tardiness. I am Fay Adams."I introduce myself. I used my mother's name. Although that's the same name I always use. He was like, 'how polite.' Is he kidding around?But then he introduced himself. His name is Clive Belmont. That's a nice name. But why is he here?I ask him about it. But he asks me why this planet is barren? Is he unaware

    We are back to the main story. Currently, there's a small a tiny blackhole in front of me. Although tiny, the power is real.It's greedily pulling everything in. It has been a few seconds since its creation, so I now have to collapse it. I read in the past that spinning blackholes are more stable.It is spinning and so everything is spinning around it. I just have to overload the gravity and made it so heavy that it can't spin.At least, that's what System told me. I pour more into it. The more I pour, the less it spins. But I can feel the exhaustion.I should have 100000 according to System. But this is the first time I have felt an exhaustion this bad. How much did I spend?But I keep pouring in more and more. Eventually it stops spinning. Everything around it stops as well.But why does it feel like something really is about to happen?(Hurry up and make a barrier worth 10000 .)(What? Even the barriers I created before were worth 1000 in total.)(Just do it. Protect them. Deploy

    I am relaxing. Not in my home or my parents's home. I am relaxing in my spaceship. As I mentioned or I was informed that both Aera and Aegis will develop their own consciousness. So once they developed it, I introduced them to the team. And well, they could merge together to make a spaceship.This is the conversation I had with them at the time."Aera, is it really okay for you guys to merge together?""Well, it normally is. Although our creator did not make us to be more than just a gun and a staff but since you are our master, you can make us do anything." (Aera)"But a gun and a staff merging together to make a spaceship is weird!" "No. It's probably you who are weird. You have the power to do anything you imagine and desire. Since we are directly connected to you, we can borrow a bit of your power and do some things on our own." (Aera)"Yes. For the longest of times I have wanted to serve you directly, master. Now I can do that even if it's just transportation work." (Aegis)"I

    (Duke Martin's POV)Every man is born with a mission. I believed so from the moment I was born. Because I saw a god. It was divine. As the god blessed me with an oracle, I understood the gravity of that."Be a great man and offer your all to me." The god ordered me. And from that very moment, I devoted myself. I must become a great man with accomplishments.I was born into a Ducal house and was given the name, Martin. I started with my studies. I became the best at studies and then sports. I mastered every type of art. Including the combat arts and weapon arts.I became the best. There was no one in the kingdom who could best me at those. But, I lacked one thing.A crucial thing. I lacked magic. I had mana but I couldn't control it to create super natural phenomenons but I had an alternative way.I always had a stand in. That stand in was almost identical to me but he wasn't me.And we both took our turns playing the role of Martin. He would use magic and I would demonstrate it as m

    I go back to the house. I have exterminated our enemy. The threat looming over us is gone. But System said that there was a god with them. What happened to that god?(That god was a minor one. The current you can easily dispose of such pests.) "So that's how it was. Won't I get anything special for killing a god?" (No. You are already stronger than the target. You can only get special rewards when you defeat someone stronger than you.)"Such a stingy person."I voice my discontent. But anyway, we are free. How will I travel outside?(Wait until Aegis finishes her evolution. After she becomes an intelligent weapon, she could solve that problem in one go.)"That's good."So I can travel in space with Aegis. That's good. The sun is up. I think it's about 7 in the morning. I open the door and find Hazel waiting."Welcome back master." (Hazel)"I'm back. Hazel, how did you know that I was out?""When I woke up, I saw a big flash in the sky and sensed that master was outside. So I came d

    I woke up. The same place where I fell asleep. The living room of my parents's house. I thought a lot of time had passed but it's just dawn.Just a few more minutes and it'll be daybreak. But I was in that dream for so long. Now then, I should go outside.I go outside and look up at the sky. The moon is still visible but it's fading. I can see a white line in the horizon.My eyesight is much better than before. So I can see the sea from my town. That's a pretty big deal.But I have even seen the Jupiter from moon which is millions of kilometers away. Seeing the sea which is barely 5000 kilometers away is no big deal.Now, what should I do? I can annihilate my enemy in a single shot. I don't even need them to be here. And I think they have stepped out of their warp.But as System said, I don't use my weapons often so let's bring them out."Aegis.." I call my staff. It originally was a staff which became a pendant around my neck and my gun which is merged with my hand.Aegis appeared, s

    The mood is tense. Because Fay dropped by and she is commanding an army of one thousand men.She was going to subjugate the monster I just killed for dinner. Who knew that monster would be so dangerous?I just killed it because it looked tasty. And now she is suspicious of me. True that no human being alive is as strong as me. I often forget about that.A mistake on my part. But now Hazel and Eden are also suspicious of me. What should I do? I ponder while Aura is preparing the dinner.I taught her how to cook after all. She has gotten better at cooking.(Clive….)I heard a familiar voice. This voice can only mean one thing.(Master?)(Why are you calling me master?)(Because it would be easier for others to understand. You are the one who taught me everything I know. Hence master.)(I am coming there.)(Eh…. I thought you wouldn't come.)(I have to. Be prepared.)And she cut it off. But why is System or master coming here?"Honey, why are you so pale?" (Aura)"Well, master contacted

    I have hunted a big deer like animal. I dragged it back and I found Hazel. Eden was there as well. Wondering what the fire was about.I remember them but they don't remember me. It won't be weird if they treat me like a stranger. But I won't tell them. I can't act weird."Welcome. I believe this is the first time we are meeting." I try to start a conversation. I am not too used to people. So I never actually made a conversation with someone else. "Yes. I believe so too. But why am I getting a distinct feeling that I have met you before?" (Hazel)"Well, I get that a lot. But this is our first meeting. Because for the past twenty years, I have never left my house for a single moment."I subtly ignore that subject. I think I managed to divert her attention. But she is still suspicious."I understand auntie Hazel but why am I feeling that as well?" (Eden)"I don't know. Maybe you have met someone like me in the past." "Then why does she look like me?" (Eden)Ahhh….Eden takes after her

    We stroll back to our cave. I can see Hazel's house from here. It's evening so not many people are outside."Aura, what about dinner?"I didn't think about it but we still haven't had dinner."Obviously I am going to cook." (Aura)"I see. But we don't have any utensils or ingredients." "You can hunt for something and I have vegetables. Utensils….I can make some." (Aura)"Ok. So let's go hunting. I am gonna hunt a big game."I make up my mind. I am gonna hunt the biggest game I find. We reached the cave. The moonlight is illuminating the flower garden. During the day, it looks beautiful. But at night under the moonlight, it looks ethereal.The flowers look white. Every color is white under the moonlight.Eh….are these special flowers?"Aura, why do those flowers look white?""Oh…they are directly above you. So your has turned them into magical flowers. They can adapt to sunlight and moonlight." (Aura)"Am I even affecting the eco system?""A bit. You have changed the nature a bit. I

    I feel like I am getting more meta than usual but hear me out. I should be in a dream. I dream a lot. But this dream feels too real. So real that it's scary.I am standing on a wooden platform, gazing at the city. The weather is good and Aura is with me. I am holding her hand and it's really peaceful.Like, I am feeling relieved from the bottom of my heart. I sound like an old man but this is what I truly wanted.I had lunch and I have already done shopping. Our date is still ongoing but as inexperienced as I am, I don't actually know what is right and what is wrong."Aura, how are you feeling?" I ask her. Because when I thought of all this, my heart started pumping. It's beating faster and heavier."How? Nice, I think. I am feeling peaceful. This kind of day is not bad."

    We entered the tavern. Mmmm…..for a dream, this is becoming quite long. But dreams are like really short so I'm probably just seeing this in a second in real time.The tavern is wooden. Medieval again. But it speaks for itself. It's greasy. We go to the dining hall. It's starting to become full. We find a table in a corner and sit down. "Quite lively, isn't it?""Yes. But it gets busier at night. It also serves as a bar so nighttime is its main time." (Aura)"Let's order."I call the waiter."What do you have?"I ask that dubious question. I am not a regular of this establishment and I don't know what they have. So let's ask first."What will you have? We have some nice wyvern and bison. We got our hands on some griffon's meat as well. We have fish too." The waiter reluctantly told me what they have which was pretty obvious. He didn't like my question so let's eat."Give me the wyvern.
